Both locations offer a wide range of employment and training options in the MetroWest area (from Waltham to Worcester). Individuals are offered a menu of choices to experience varied tasks, training settings and jobs in many different settings including local business and social enterprises operated by JRI Developing Abilities.
Full Circle Arts: Full Circle Arts features eco-friendly artwork and other creative products made and sold by adults with disabilities. Emerging artists from the Full Circle Arts Studios program learn innovative techniques to express themselves creatively and develop affordable and unique hand-crafted gifts and accessories.
